Manchester United have been offered three players in a potential swap deal for Jadon Sancho, according to a report.
Sancho hasn’t played for United since publicly falling out with former manager Erik ten Hag in a clash that saw the former England winger hit back after the Dutchman had criticised his training levels.
He then went on loan to former side Borussia Dortmund in Germany, before penning a season-long temporary stay at Chelsea that saw the Blues given the option to make it permanent for £25million at the end of the campaign.
But the London club rejected the chance and ended up paying a £5m penalty to ensure Sancho would return back to United. He still has one year left remaining on his deal.
There has been no indication that current boss Ruben Amorim has any intention of integrating Sancho back into his squad and the club are willing to sell the 25-year-old winger
According to Fabrizio Romano, the most recent chance for United to get rid of the star involves Juventus offering three players in a potential exchange deal.
One of those players is no stranger to the Premier League, with Douglas Luiz having played for Aston Villa between 2019 and 2024, joining from Manchester City.
Luiz has seemingly been on the chopping block at the Italian side for a long time, and could well make the move back to the English top flight and join United.
It is also reported that the 27-year-old has been mentioned as a potential player in any swap deal for United winger Antony, who spent the second half of the season on loan in Spain with Real Betis.
The second player offered for Sancho is reportedly Dusan Vlahovic. Vlahovic is for sale in Turin, having scored 17 goals in 44 games last season. In total, he has netted 58 times for Juventus since joining from Fiorentina in 2022.
The third and final player is thought to be Timothy Weah. Weah, formerly of Celtic and Lille, is an attack-minded right back and also a regular at international level with the United States.
It is reported that United were made aware that all three players are for sale, though it is is unclear if all three would have been involved in a deal for Sancho. The idea is said to have only been raised during negotiations about the Englishman.
Juventus are thought to be keen on signing Sancho, with no issues arising over a potential transfer fee, but they are thought to be reluctant to cover Sancho’s full £250,000-a-week salary.
It was reported last month that Sancho had agreed terms with Napoli, but no move materialised over his wage demands.
Sancho is hoping to reinvigorate his career but it appears United are struggling to shift him.
Despite his past success in Germany, Dortmund are not keen on offering him a route out of Manchester.
In June, Dortmund’s sporting director Sebastie Kehl ruled out a move, saying: ‘Of course, there’s always some kind of contact with Jadon because of the long history we share, but at the moment, Jadon is not a topic for us.’
